TrianglewideThe Dark KnightMultiplex near you—It's Monday, and what do you mean you haven't seen The Dark Knight? If you're one of the few who stayed away from the multiplex this weekend, it's time to shake off all the hype—and all the huzzahs for the late Heath Ledger—and take a cold, hard look at the reviews. For a roundup, go to Rotten Tomatoes or to our preferred review aggregator, www.metacritic.com. Better yet, read our critic Neil Morris' review, "A darker Knight." Then decide: Is this latest earth-rattling Hollywood offering a bat-smash or simply bat-something else? —David Fellerath
